Restore Your Story

I'll help you unpack the burdens you are carrying.

On top of 13 years of experience in the mental health field, I completed CatholicPsych Institute’s Model of Applied Personalism (CPMAP), with the goal that I can use my past training and experience to help people find restoration and healing from their family, attachment and faith wounds.

In families, there are difficulties, but those difficulties are resolved by love. Hatred doesn’t resolve any difficulty. Divided hearts do not resolve difficulties. Only love is capable of resolving difficulty. Love is a celebration, love is joy, love is perseverance. - Pope Francis

Family and our faith community are both such an integral part of our life, yet they can also cause us the most pain. Mentorship can help provide the guidance and help needed to be able to work through these family and faith struggles while staying grounded in the Catholic faith.

the world needs a catholic standard of mental health

“Everyone, in fact, especially those who have heeded the divine call to follow Christ closely, needs to be accompanied personally by a guide reliable in doctrine and expert in the things of God”

~Pope Benedict XVI

Integrated Mentorship

We know how God made you, why you're stuck, and how to get you unstuck

The mentorship model I provide allows me to walk with you in full view of your whole humanity- your body, mind, and SPIRIT. We are trained by the CatholicPsych Model to understand you through the lens of Faith, Reason, and Science. This is the ONLY way to really know you, and how to help you.

A Daily Model

Accompaniment modeled after Christ should meet you in the context of your daily life, just like He does.

We help you understand and experience the work of God in your life. And even if you struggle with, or don't even believe in God, we can help you to experience how Goodness, Truth, and Beauty are pursuing you in the context of your lived life. You don't have to compartmentalize your "self-care" away from the rest of your life - I'll be with you every day, to walk with you as you are making your way through whatever real challenges are presented to you.

What are your qualifications?

I am CPMAP Certified through the CatholicPsych Institute and was part of the inaugural class of their mentorship program. The CPMAP model integrates current psychological studies (such as Internal Family Systems (IFS)) and is grounded on solid Catholic anthropology to fully understand the human person.

I have also worked in a variety of mental health and substance abuse treatment programs over the past 13 years. I hold a Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and have completed two levels of Internal Family Systems (IFS) training.

While this is not therapy, and mentorship does not include diagnosing, prescribing medications, or providing the sacraments, I cannot wait to get started working with you on uncovering your story and helping you to find hope and restoration.

What exactly is Mentorship?

Mentorship (technically called Integrated Daily Dialogic Mentorship, or IDDM) is neither traditional counseling nor spiritual direction, but occupies a unique space in between those two fields. Mentorship is daily accompaniment, looking at you and your story as an integrated whole, examined at your pace, with the goal of finding happiness and holiness in your life.
